My main goal in joining WWOOF is to connect deeply with nature, animals and people. I am passionate about building a sense of community and fostering meaningful connections with other living beings. I also hope to improve my English through real-life experiences and conversations and gain new perspectives while contributing positively to the projects I join.

I really enjoy being outside and connecting to the land, I want to travel with a purpose and found myself drawn to WWOOF as a way of meeting others in a gentle and purposeful way. I am drawn to Australia and New Zealand through the pull of maternal ancestory and see myself as a global citizen, fortunate enough to have time to explore. Being a WWOOF volunteer will enable be to stay grounded - literally and spiritually! I want to learn more about indigenous people's land practices, organic farming in Australia and how this may support the global care of the earth.

I joined WWOOF because I think it’s the perfect opportunity for me to meet new people and learn new skills. I love being outdoors and I think it is very fulfilling to help other people with their projects.  I did some gardening before when I worked on a construction site which I really enjoyed. After all I hope that I can gain new perspectives and have some exciting experiences while wwoofing.

I had a beautiful time years ago WOOFING in Sweden. I have some more time up my sleeve to WOOF again this year.  

I became interested in joining WWOOF after learning a little about permaculture during one of my university lectures. Although it was a brief introduction, it sparked my curiosity about sustainable living and how people can live in harmony with nature. Since then, I have been eager to learn more and, eventually, practice it myself. I have heard that Australia is known for its strong focus on permaculture and sustainable farming practices, making it an ideal place for me to gain hands-on experience. By joining WWOOF in Australia, I hope to immerse myself in the local lifestyle, learning not only about farming techniques but also about how people live sustainably on a daily basis. This experience will give me valuable insights and skills that I can apply to my own life in the future, and help me contribute to a more sustainable world.

I am looking to make the most of my time living/ working in Australia by exploring new places and working in different environments with new people. I’m a very motivated and hard worker and get along with people easily.

I want to discover new things, new people and a new culture. I am looking for new things and learning for my future. I came to Australia to get out of my comfort zone and try new things

Uncanny Valley is a beautiful 10 acre semi-rural property, incorporating permaculture design principles to promote the regeneration of native flora and using organic methods to grow fruit and vegetables.

We are a small scale farm located within the swan valley 25 min drive from Perth. Our primary area of farming is animal husbandry. We have cattle, sheep, pigs and chickens that we feed and look after daily. We also farm fruit and veg and produce wood fired bread that we sell at our weekend market stall at the front of our property.

Looking to get back in touch with Organic movement and Permaculture network folks in Australia/Tasmania. Hoping to start or to join an organic/permie farm here or possibly, if I return, in Asia e.g. an Akihatake in Japan.

I love using WWOOF because it allows me to embrace new adventures and enjoy the excitement of working on a farm. Being active in nature is one of my passions, and your farm provides the perfect opportunity for that. 🌾🐑 I take great pleasure in contributing to daily tasks, whether it's tending to the garden, feeding animals, helping with the harvest or any crazy exercice. 🌏 Furthermore, I look forward to meeting new people, trying local foods, and understanding different ways of life. Overall, WWOOF combines my love for adventure, nature, and cultural exchange into one incredible experience. I am always eager to help out on the farm and learn from you.

We would like to know about agriculture. Farming, dairy farm, gardening like everything else. Also want to know different things like culture, food and working style. We like to learn that something new and something more deeply. We love nature and being outside in the sun. We feel there is something exciting at there with WWOOF life.

Thank you for your interest in volunteering. We appreciate help, enjoy young people and having an excuse to visit the beautiful and interesting places Adelaide, the hills and the Fleurieu Peninsula in South Australia have to offer with them. We are regularly  booked 3 to 4 months in advance with mostly long-term guests.This should not deter you to ask anyway as booked helpers sometimes cancel their spot. Please read through all the text below and only apply if you think this is for you. We live on a 2 hectare property with the young Angas River running through. We have organic gardens with fruit trees, all sorts of berries, vegetable gardens with free roaming bantams, big layer hens, flower beds, lawns as well as a goat on paddocks and a cute house cat. Bernward is semi retired but still runs a sustainable architecture and building consultancy business part time from offices attached to the home. Barbara works at the local hospital. We have been accommodating helpers since 2011  through various help exchange sites. If you want a break from travelling in a non judgmental  friendly  family environment and you are open and self-motivated, this is the place for you. This is not an action or party place but rather a place to start your journey inward to grow and get to know yourself and your interaction with others. Deep discussions are possible in a relaxed atmosphere. Be creative with great light, & scenery for painting and photography, writing, music and getting back to nature. A big woodworking workshop invites creativity. I enjoy teaching woodworking skills to our helpers with the option to learn how to fit out campervans and tiny houses. A couple of times a week we heat up our Finnish Sauna and helpers are encouraged to join. A great place to open up, listen to yourself and have meaningful discussions. Help is always needed in the garden & paddock, picking berries & apples, looking after animals, weed control, making firewood, compost, cleaning up sheds & around the place, sometimes on a sustainable building site. We live 45min by car from Adelaide, 45min from safe swimming beaches & 45min from the surf, so we are pretty central. Accommodation  for 2 in separate stone cottage & own room in the main building. All share in home cooked evening meal. Mixed diet. No smokers please. Longer stays (min 3 weeks) preferred after initial few days.

We come from the countryside ourselves and grew up next to farms. We love animals and nature and the wwoofing community offers a great opportunity to learn new things, support the local people and all this in a setting that is conducive to our travelling and the locals.

J'ai choisi de rejoindre le WWOOF car cette expérience réunit tout ce qui me passionne : découvrir de nouvelles cultures, apprendre des savoir-faire uniques, et contribuer activement tout en respectant les valeurs du développement durable.

De plus, partir en Australie est pour moi une formidable opportunité d'améliorer mon anglais, un objectif clé de mon voyage. Le WWOOFing incarne parfaitement cet équilibre entre apprentissage, partage et enrichissement personnel, ce qui en fait l'expérience idéale pour moi.

I love the concept because it makes an easy way to travel and help other people with their projects based on an ecologic mindset. Appart from helping people, while joining WWOOF, I will learn more about nature and the culture of the place where I will stay. It is nice to be hosted freely in another country in exchange of my 100% motivated help.

The property is 12.5hectares and mainly forested. Kangaroos visit daily and there are resident swamp wallabies and ducks on the large dam. It has an established orchard of various fruit trees. I am in the process of revegetation of native plants (planting and mulching), removal of lantana and the re-establishment of a vegetable garden. The prpoerty is solar off grid and has a dual water supply system using tank and dam water. There is a separate self contained cabin available or a room with ensuite in the main house. The property is 10 minutes to Coolum Beach and less than 20 minutes to Noosa Heads. I have recently been travelling through central and South America and can stumble my way through spanish conversations.
